Stargate: Atlantis — The Queen {Sentence Starters}
“My God! How big is that thing?“
“Trust me, we didn’t do it for you.“
“If you can’t see that, you’re a fool.“
“You don’t seem too happy about it.“
“Are you trying to get us both killed?“
“You didn’t voice this objection before.“
“He will not be bothering you any further.“
“I still say we should’ve brought back-up.”
“Nobody was asking you to risk your life.“
“I was just expecting a little more resistance.“
“Everybody’s gonna be fine if they don’t panic.”
“It was as warm a reception as we could expect.“
“Get some rest. I’ll come back and check on you.“
“Yeah, but something makes me think he wants to.“
“Believe me, this is not a decision I am taking lightly.“
“It appears we have no choice but to trust each other.“
“And so you killed her and forced me to take the blame?”
“My apologies. You understand: you can’t be too careful.“
“No. We’ve come this far. I intend to go through with this.“
“What were you thinking?! You put both our lives at terrible risk.“
“I can’t. I had, like, three cups of coffee and I’m completely wired.“
“Perhaps, next time, you will not be so quick to question my tactics.“
“So, I understand you have a proposal – a breakthrough of some kind?“
“I don’t know. From where I was sitting, things seemed to go pretty well.“
“Hell, we can pull the plug any time you want. You just give us the word.“
“Not to mention, I could stop waiting for the chance to kill you… in theory.”
“Wag your tongue like that again and I will remove it. Is that understood?“
“Forgive me, but this is the way it must be. You must say that you killed her.”
“If I consume this, it may give me a moment’s pleasure, but it will not sustain me.“
“If you were in my position, you might understand the need for such precautions.“
“This is intended to be a diplomatic mission. What kind of message would that send?”
“I’m fully aware of the costs, but we must take a firm stance against intrusions such as this.“
“Why are we thinking of ways to fix them when we should be thinking of ways to kill them?“
“If history’s taught us anything, this is the part where we get double crossed and taken prisoner.”
“Just remember: if anything happens to her… there won’t be anywhere in the galaxy you can hide.“
“It may be understandable, but it is not acceptable! Above all, you must never show weakness.“
“All you need to do is convince them that you are a capable replacement and they will accept you.“

SHE LETS OUT A LAUGH. Truthfully, she meant to keep it inwardly sarcastic, but she was completely unable to do so. She wouldn’t begin to delve into her problems, as per the way Alana always managed to do it, she turned a situation around, and made it about the other person. She wasn’t a FAN of talking about herself.
“ I’m more of a tell me about your problems person, rather than the me tell you about mine. ”she laughs, it ws no exaggeration. Even when she was forced into therapy, she was the worst patient. All Doctors were. “ You did that with grace and easy flow——are you sure YOU’RE not the Psychiatrist? ” she grins.
BRIAN’S FACE BREAKS INTO A WIDE SMILE, as if Rudy had just found himself somehow somewhat charmed by Alana’s quaint little aversion to talking about her apparently rather lacklustre personal life. Must not do much with her day. Figures.
“ Hey– c’mon, I’m right. ” He keeps a warm, friendly gaze, gently patting the seat just next to him, adding on a “ sit down. Talk to me. ” with a mock-professionality.

❝You’re still young. You have time to date guys and do whatever you want.❞ It was something like a parent would say and it almost left a bitter taste in her mouth when those words actually come out. She knew next to shit about dating. She’d only ever been with one boy and he almost ruined her life. Hell, he almost caused her to take her own life, but she got out of that somehow. ❝But I guess it doesn’t make it hurt any less,❞ she goes on to say. She isn’t going to be some cold bitch when it was clear that she was still hurting after her breakup.
❝No– no, I–❞ Emma cuts herself off with a wince. Still young, and still dying. ❝This is really embarrassing. I don’t know what I’m trying to say. I’m not– hurt, or anything, but he might’ve been the only boyfriend I’ll ever have, and he was a pot dealer that was only here for the summer.❞
It wasn’t like she didn’t want anybody around her to ignore the big, mucus-filled elephant in the room. She was happy that Violet wanted to talk to her about normal, teenage girl stuff. It made a change.

❛ if i were being polite, i’d call it bad improvisation. ❜ (Either Brian or Romero)
“ it’s hard not to –– he comes in, tells me he can’t remember the last time he saw her, and then asks if we’ve found any of his fingerprints in her house. i mean, what am i supposed to say to that? ” he asks. but knowing his luck, norman would come back in the morning after an early visit to the woman’s grave accompanied by a 28-page essay and a completely straight story.

❝Well– bullshit works for me.❞
Gunner had sold pot. He definitely hadn’t sold any of the fancy, high-grade stuff grown on the edge of town– mainly because fancy, high-grade pot farms on the edge of town were only rumoured to actually exist at all– and it was nice, but he had sold pot. No relationship is perfect.
❝It just... distracted me, I guess. I’ve never really thought about it. It was nothing serious.❞ Emma adds on, nervously, partly out of the slightest fear she might’ve pissed violet off: ❝he’s gone now. I sound corny. I see your point.❞

( * DEXTER PROMPTS !
season 03 — part 02. trigger warning for murder.
❛ there are many ways to stop a heart. ❜
❛ your life is gonna change forever. ❜
❛ i’m not here to make friends. i’m here to do my job. ❜
❛ and here i am. paradox personified. taking life. creating life. ❜
❛ it felt… right. felt like justice. ❜
❛ never underestimate the capacity of other people to let you down. ❜
❛ you handled a tough situation the smart way. ❜

❛ it’s all about strategy, outmanoeuvering the opposition, bending him to your will. ❜
❛ i am not the enemy here. ❜
❛ you’re a creature of habit. ❜
❛ i know how it is to want to rebalance an unbalanced world. ❜
❛ some doors should stay shut. ❜
❛ this whole back and forth game for leverage is pointless. ❜
❛ there are the innocent and there are the deserving. ❜
❛ it’s really hard to find people that you trust these days. ❜
❛ i’ve got some serious soul searching to do. ❜
❛ i finally just have to accept it. i’ll always be alone. ❜
❛ i had higher hopes for you. for us. ❜
❛ i tried to crack that damn armor of yours. ❜
❛ i didn’t plan to, but it was kill or be killed. ❜
❛ you lost a friend. you don’t have to be so strong. ❜
❛ we all have secrets we prefer not to share. skeletons. ❜
❛ a wolf would chew off its own paw. its survival instinct is that fierce. so’s mine. ❜
❛ all my previous attempts at human connection have ended in… well, death. ❜

“No.” Norma retorts, already having angrily emptied the contents of her evidently well-loved ‘New Seasons Market’ grocery bag onto the kitchen island.
She’d been humiliated in front of the council, embarrassed in front of the sheriff, and done about a weeks’ worth of grocery shopping– all before two thirty today. If she hadn’t just shat on her chances at stopping the bypass, then she would’ve been able to find some humour in that. It was only she when realised she couldn’t find the solutions to all her problems while knelt down in front of the cheeses at the bottom of the fridge that she figured she should stand up, relax, and say something else:
“I’m... I had a bad time. I’ve gotta leave again to go pick up Norman in an a couple hours, anyway, it’s not worth going into– it’s stupid–”

in lila’s experience, the fear of a scathing rejection from everyone they ever knew definitely isn’t an uncommon one for someone to experience as they’re beginning to veer off the path towards staying sober. those that let their fears make them feel as if nobody else is going to understand them start to become the sole obstacle on their own path to recovery, and then they don’t get better, all because they never found the courage to let anybody in.
‘ it will, ’ said lila, not about to let dexter slip away. ‘ you have to make them understand you. the people who care about you can’t help with what they don’t get. ‘
she straightened her back, taking a sip of her coffee before lifting her gaze to meet his.
‘ so, why don’t you start with me? right now. ’
#i come back from a several month break from rping almost purely 4 this#this is what they call: extremely bad therapy.#* ch: lila w.#bloodsxmple#bloodsxmple01.
